Grinding wheels are the cornerstone of precision grinding processes, and among the various abrasive types, white aluminum oxide stands out for its purity, durability, and superior cutting action. In this blog, we’ll explore the features, benefits, and applications of the White Aluminum Oxide Grinding Wheel, specifically from Hindustan Abrasives, a leading name in the abrasives industry.

What is White Aluminum Oxide?

White aluminum oxide (WA) is a high-purity abrasive made by fusing high-grade aluminum oxide at over 2000°C in an electric arc furnace. It is slightly softer than brown aluminum oxide but is more friable, meaning it fractures easily to expose sharp cutting edges. This property makes it ideal for precision grinding of hard and heat-sensitive materials.
